This cartoon by Bob Englehart from The Hartford Courant relates to the prediction that the world will end on May 21st 2011 (see previous post). Visit Daryl Cagle's Professional Cartoonists Index for more cartoons on this topic.
GRAMMAR
A great cartoon for teaching about tenses: the use of 'will' to make predictions, and the use of the present perfect for an action begun in the past which continues into the present.
COMMENT
As English footballer Paul Gascoigne is once supposed to have said: "I never make predictions and I never will".
